An item can't be empty in Python,and null doesn't exist, it can be the
object None. But probly that's not your case.

A way to solve your problem is to see how many elements the list
contains with
len(sequence)
then act accordingly with the elements that exist.
Even better is to work on the elements that exist, with something like:
for element in sequence:
do_stuff
Note: sometimes having a clean and readable program is better than
having a running program that you can't read, because you can fix the
the first one, and it can teach you something.
